II. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

An essential element in the successful implementation of any program is professional development. Technology is no exception. Technology is changing the daily operations of the educational institution, as well as the expectations for teaching and administrative staff. Professional development programs need to not only focus on skills-based training, but also on the effective use of technology in the educational and administrative setting. For example, administrative personnel need to know how to use technology to complete their work accurately and efficiently, while teaching staff need to know how to effectively integrate technology with curriculum to enhance student achievement. This component of professional development is ongoing, as current technologies continue to change. An awareness of state and national standards addressing technology competencies for teachers, administrators and other relevant educators will be conveyed through professional development workshops.

F. Professional Development a. Administer staff development needs assessment tool on an annual basis. b. Technology training and awareness of state and national standards addressing

technology competencies will be provided to administrators, teachers, and other relevant educators and staff.

c. Technology in-services will be provided for all staff. d. Technology training will be integrated with other staff development activities

to enable staff members to effectively use technology throughout the curriculum.

e. Develop appropriate technology training activities. f. Establish and maintain partnerships with academic institutions and businesses

to aid in the development of a technologically advanced staff. g. Develop and maintain tools to evaluate staff development components.

G. Support Resources a. A variety of resources are revised annually and utilized to support the entire

technology program: i. District Policies (Internet Safety , Electronic manuals and printed

material, Informational School Web Site (Intranet), Instructional/Training Software, Technology Expectations grade PreK-12, Technology Department Procedures, Electronic Information Subscriptions/Help Systems, Instructional Technology Committee, Technology Integration Development Volunteers, Erie 1 BOCES Technical Support and other Resources are utilized to support the entire technology program.

Professional Development Strategy

A significant and integral factor of an overall education process is the ongoing learning of

instructional and pupil personnel services staff. Given the complexities of change and

specifically, the implementation of the New York State Learning Standards, National

Educational Technology Standards and Barker Central School District Educational Technology

Grade Level Expectations, professional development becomes a more critical issue than in the

past. A working knowledge of the letter and spirit of these standards is essential to

Page 12: Barker Central School District 1628 Quaker Road …...Barker Central School District 1628 Quaker Road Barker, New York 14012 Instructional Technology Plan 8th Edition Barker’s Vision

Barker Central School District Instructional Technology Plan 2009-2012

12

understanding and applying curricular goals and objectives, instructional practices needed to

implement goals and objectives and appropriate assessment practices needed to evaluate goals

and objectives. The professional development plan is driven by the concept that both

instructional and pupil personnel staff will need to continue their efforts to enhance curriculum

application and assessment in order for students to meet and exceed the New York State

Learning Standards. Finally, it is recognized that a successful professional development process

must emphasize context, process and content. It must be a sustained endeavor to provide staff

with the tools and critical substance to observe, reflect and modify practice in the spirit of the

principles of action research. Barker Central School District Professional Development Focus Statement

The focus of the Barker Central School District’s professional development initiative is to support and enhance our professional community’s commitment to address changing school and community needs.

Interoperability of Equipment The Barker Central School District operates a Windows based desktop environment. Equipment purchase requests are only finalized when research by technology department staff determine successful interoperability with existing systems and infrastructure. Purchases made through Erie 1 BOCES are approved by the Senior Technical Support Specialist assigned to the district. This process serves as a second check for interoperability with the WAN, BOCES systems and internal LAN. Continuous upgrading of equipment compatible with the district’s computer network is realized from the district hardware budget.

Technology Replacement and Maintenance Cycle Technology devices will be identified for replacement on a semi-annual basis by the Instructional Technology Committee. As mechanical parts wear out and maintenance costs increase to repair equipment, the determination will be made to replace machines based on their operability effectiveness to meet the goals of the district. Technology devices purchased through Erie 1 BOCES will be wiped of all data and returned to Erie 1 BOCES via WNYRIC staff or designee. Barker Central School District owned equipment will be wiped of all data and submitted for approval for disposition according to district policy. The three-year Instructional Technology Plan strives to identify equipment with the highest probability for replacement. This is subject to change as new software/hardware requirements change and unpredictable equipment failures are experienced.

J. Increase Access

The Barker Central School District is a community-based learning center. Technology provides new ways of communicating ideas and information. Barker Central Schools is dedicated to exploring new methods of communication via our website, voicemail system and e-mail. These methods will allow community members, parents and students to access live data regarding district events, student achievement, school activities, scheduling and course information, college and financial information and will provide a means for communicating with teachers, administrators and staff. The Barker Central School District will take steps to ensure that all students and teachers have increased access to technology by expanding community education classes for young children through adult level learners and offering a more extensive range of professional development opportunities. Our commitment to various BOCES services such as Common Set of Learning Objectives provides our staff with the opportunity to take advantage of progressive staff development courses to enhance the integration of technology into instruction and curriculum. The acquisition of interactive classroom equipment will also provide students with greater access to the exploration of technology tools as a learning mechanism. As the district strives to provide a one-to-one computing model for students with secure wireless and mobile computing devices, greater access will be realized by all students. The acquisition of mobile devices with a specific purpose, such as Dragon Naturally Speaking, to meet IEP goals will provide assistive technology for special-needs students. The district migration from a server-client based student management system to a web-based system with an integrated parent portal will provide parents with greater access to student information and communication with instructional staff.

L. Coordination of Resources

Technology related funding is coordinated through the Barker Central School District Business Office in conjunction with the Technology Department and other Administrative Offices. The Barker Central School District researches cost-effective ways to implement technology related systems to meet the goals established by the Board of Education. The district has formulated a comprehensive plan to incorporate federal title programs, grants and state aidable funds. The coordination of various funding strategies affords the district with opportunities to provide appropriate services to meet the needs of our students, staff and community. The projected cost of implementing this plan will be realized from the Barker Central School annual technology budget of $654,049.

V. MONITORING AND EVALUATION

M. Evaluation

The Barker Central School District Technology Committee monitors and evaluates implementation of the district’s instructional technology plan on a quarterly basis. In addition, an annual review will coincide with departmental curriculum review with teachers and district administrators. The technology committee and district cabinet members receive summative reports from district technology staff regarding progress toward goals and actions detailed in the instructional technology plan. Data from surveys, evaluation forms, data mentor, data warehouse and other analytical software is used to determine whether a goal is successfully achieved and to evaluate the effectiveness of each goal. District Administrators, Technology Coodinator and Instructional Technology Committee are responsible for the collection of data to determine the effectiveness of the Instructional

Technology Insights and Ideas through use of Survey Barker Central School District staff and students have the opportunity to participate in the annual Net Day “Speak Up Day” online survey to share their views on technology use and provide the district with data regarding the present level of technology skills, determine the future direction of technology for the district and to promote enhanced student achievement through the effective use of technology.

Technology Survey Summary Data: 2008 Findings Teachers value the importance of technology in their professional lives with 98% ranking technology as important or very important to their professional responsibilities. The teachers indicated a trend in terms of the impact that technology has on instruction and learning.

The highest ranked statements on the value of technology within education include: richer lesson plans, more engaged learners, personalized education, greater communications with parents on student performance.

71% of teachers said that technology has had the greatest impact on teaching and instructional support. The second greatest impact is in communications.

Teachers’ #1 use of technology is communication with colleagues followed by word processing tasks (tests, handouts), communications with administrators, record management and doing research for their students.

42% of teachers say that their pre-service training did not adequately prepare them to integrate technology into classroom instruction.

87% of teachers think that in-service training provided by technology department personnel or other mentor-teachers is satisfactory.

78% of teachers say that they always or sometimes incorporate new Internet materials into new or existing lesson plans. Teachers also think that technology use is actually an asset in their mission to meet state accountability standards. Sampling of Technology Survey Questions:

• What areas of your professional responsibilities as a teacher has technology had the biggest impact?

• What devices do you use in a typical work week? • What Internet tools do you use in a typical work week? • What obstacles do you face in using technology and the Internet at school for

professional tasks? • Has the professional development you received adequately prepared you for using

technology in instruction?

• How do you include Internet as part of instruction, classroom projects, lesson plans? • If you were designing a new school, what technology would be most important for new

teachers? • Please share ideas on how technology could better be used/integrated in the classroom. • Please share ideas on how teachers can become more involved with technology decisions.

N. Acceptable Use Policy Barker Central School students are required to submit a completed Barker Central School Technology Acceptable Use Agreement to the Barker Central School Technology Department at the beginning of each school year before access to the district computer network is granted. Barker Central School staff are required to acknowledge the Barker Central School Technology Acceptable Use Agreement delivered via email prior to the beginning of each school year to maintain district computer network access. A copy of the district AUP is included below. Content Filtering The Barker Central School District acquires Internet content filtering services through Erie 1 BOCES for all desktop machines throughout the district. The district also acquires mobile Internet content filtering services for all laptop computer. The mobile content filtering service for laptops forces filtering services whether the laptop is used internally at the district or external locations. The 8e6 content filtering solution, following the recommended categories for K-12 education, blocks inappropriate web sites. District staff may submit sites (via e-mail) for review to block/unblock; in some cases, if the site is deemed unsafe, the WNYRIC immediately blocks this site to all users. Barker Central School District Internet Filtering Policy 2001 8322

Instruction SUBJECT: THE CHILDREN’S INTERNET PROTECTION ACT: INTERNET

CONTROL FILTERING/SAFETY

In compliance with The Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) and Regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the District has adopted and will enforce this Internet safety policy that ensures the use of technology protection measures (i.e., filtering or blocking of access to certain material on the Internet) on all District computers with Internet access. Such technology protection measures apply to Internet access by both adults and minors with regard to visual depictions that are obscene, child pornography, or, with respect to the use of computers by minors, considered harmful to such students. Further, appropriate monitoring of online activities of minors, as determined by the building/program supervisor, will also be enforced to ensure the safety of students when accessing the Internet. Further, the Board of Education’s decision to utilize technology protection measures and other safety procedures for staff and students when accessing the Internet fosters the educational mission of the schools including the selection of appropriate teaching/instructional materials and activities to enhance the schools’ programs; and to help ensure the safety of personnel and students while online. However, no filtering technology can guarantee that staff and students will be prevented from accessing all inappropriate locations. Proper safety procedures, as deemed appropriate by the applicable administrator/program supervisor, will be provided to ensure compliance with the CIPA.

In addition to the use of technology protection measures, the monitoring of online activities and access by minors to inappropriate matter on the Internet and World Wide Web may include, but shall not be limited to, the following guidelines: a) Ensuring the presence of a teacher and/or other appropriate District personnel

when students are accessing the Internet including, but not limited to, the supervision of minors when using electronic mail, chat rooms, and other forms of direct electronic communications. As determined by the appropriate building administrator, the use of e-mail and chat rooms may be blocked as deemed necessary to ensure the safety of such students;

b) Monitoring logs of access in order to keep track of the web sites visited by students as a measure to restrict access to materials harmful to minors.

c) The dissemination of the district’s Acceptable Use Policy and accompanying Regulations to parents and students in order to provide notice of the school’s requirements, expectations, and student’s obligations when accessing the Internet. Parental and/or student consent, as may be applicable, shall be required prior to authorization for student use of District computers. In compliance with this Internet safety policy as well as the district’s Acceptable Use Policy, unauthorized access (including so-called “hacking”) and other unlawful activities by minors are prohibited by the District and student violations of such policies may result in disciplinary action.

d) Appropriate supervision and notification to minors regarding the prohibition as to unauthorized disclosure, use and dissemination of personal information regarding such students.

The determination of what is “inappropriate” for minors shall be made by the District and/or designated school official(s). It is acknowledged that the determination of such “inappropriate” material may vary depending upon the circumstances of the situation and the age of the students involved in online research. The terms “minor,” “child pornography,” “harmful to minors,” “obscene,” “technology protection measure,” “sexual act,” and “sexual contact” will be as defined in accordance with CIPA and other applicable laws/regulations as may be appropriate and implemented pursuant to the District’s educational mission. Under certain specified circumstances, the blocking or filtering technology measure(s) may be disabled for adults engaged in bona fide research or other lawful purposes. The power to disable can only be exercised by an administrator, supervisor, or other person authorized by the School District.

The School District shall provide certification, pursuant to the requirements of CIPA, to document the District’s adoption and enforcement of its Internet safety policy, including the operation and enforcement of technology protection measures (i.e., blocking/filtering of access to certain material on the Internet) for all School District computers with Internet access.

The District has provided reasonable public notice and has held at least one public hearing or meeting to address the proposed Internet Content Filtering/Safety Policy prior to Board adoption. Furthermore, appropriate actions will be taken to ensure the ready availability to the public of the District’s Internet Content Filtering/Safety Policy, as well as any other district policies relating to the use of technology. 47 United States Code (U.S.C.)

Classroom Webpage Copyright & Content

Guidelines & Standards

Subject Matter All subject matter on the BCS Website and links provided on the website must relate to:

• Curriculum and instruction • District-authorized activities or services offered • Information about our district • Information and/or content that follows the district mission

Content may not violate any district policies.

Expectations Teacher Web pages are written for a wide range of audiences - parents, students, community members and other teachers. We ask that you always be aware of your audience. When designing your pages, minimal scrolling is recommended. Whenever possible, break long pages into separate pages. MINIMUM teacher page content includes:

1. A welcome page that is up-to-date 2. Some other useful content for students/parents (favorite links, syllabus, homework, calendar etc…) 3. Up-to-date links

All content may be routed through Website administrators before it goes “live”. We reserve the right to edit, remove and/or adjust material/content on any teacher pages within our site that violate the law or the district’s acceptable use policy. Any such change will be reported to the page owner. Inappropriate content may result in the immediate removal of pages from the Barker Central School website. Some examples of inappropriate content are:

Use of commercial advertising Links to chat rooms Links to personal home pages, myspace, facebook etc… Infringement of copyright and/or the acceptable use policy

Copyright

• The district is legally responsible for use of copyrighted materials on the Website. • Use of logos, artwork, photographs, sound, video or printed material on the district Website without

written permission by the author, business or owner is PROHIBITED. • Content editors of our site must have all permissions for use of copyrighted material on file. Each section

editor should also keep a file of written permission in their personal files. • Copyright violation is real. • What does Copyright mean?

o Copyrighted materials include but are not limited to:

Page 100: Barker Central School District 1628 Quaker Road …...Barker Central School District 1628 Quaker Road Barker, New York 14012 Instructional Technology Plan 8th Edition Barker’s Vision

100

Photographs Logos Music Videos Cartoons Drawings/paintings/graphs/charts/animation Articles – including selected text from an article Other Web pages (their content and photos) Most everything published in print and electronic form Student work

o The Web is considered published/public. Teachers do not have “fair use” on the Web. If you copy an article from another site and paste it onto your page (even if it is sourced),

you are not in compliance with copyright laws. The proper way is to post an intro and link to the content you want to use.

Avoid “right clicking” and then “copy and pasting” a photo, cartoon or image that you like.

Handouts cannot be posted on your page without the owner’s permission. Even if it says “okay for classroom reproduction” – the Web is not the classroom. A way around this is to have the page you are putting this material on user protected – this means that only certain users, like students, would have access to the page you intend to put the information on.

• Avoid framing. o This is opening an article or other Website inside a frame of your Website – so the user “feels”

that they have never left your site. Always open links in a new window. • Avoid deep linking.

o This is when you visit another Website and find an article/page/section that you like and then insert a link directly to that article/page/section. Instead, you should provide the link to the other Website’s homepage with a description of the material you want the user to read and where to find it on the site.

• Student work. Yes, it is their own. Ask before using and make sure you notify a parent/guardian if they are under 18.

Content • Tips:

o Keep it short – the average viewer spends around 10 seconds on a page o Keep your point clear o Proofread! Spellcheck! o Keep your content up-to-date. You want them to check back frequently. Give them a reason to. o Remember, anyone can access our website and the information on it – even the press. It is

important that you present yourself and your information (including photographs) on the Web the same as you would like the news to present you on TV.

o Remember, you are an ambassador of this District. Parents, students, community members and others will regularly be looking at these pages. You are marketing your class and our District on your pages.

o Don’t invite danger. When listing out a field trip, for example, do not give exact times and locations – don’t

invite predators. Any references to email addresses should be written as follows to minimize spam: jdoe

followed by @barkercsd.net

Barker Central School District Instructional Technology Plan 2009-2012

101

When listing student photos, be certain not to post their full name or personal details. Broken homes, predators and identity thieves are a reality.

• Visual Appearance

o Text: The main BCS Web page font is Tahoma. While you are welcome to use other fonts,

remember that too many may make the page hard to read. Don’t use blinking text. Not only is it a visual distraction, it slows down dial-up access. The color blue is traditionally reserved for links. Red should be used for emergency or

very important, yet temporary information. Make sure your background color, image and your font complement each other. It should

be easy to read. Also be conscious of how your page will print. Pages with excessive color and background can drain an ink cartridge quickly.

Don’t underline words. Underlining usually indicates an active link. o Clip Art and Photos

Follow district policy regarding student photo usage. • At the current time, the district uses passive consent for display and use of

student photos and work. You will be informed if any of your students have a “do not use” policy on file. It is your responsibility to maintain compliance for students with a “do not use” policy on file.

• Be aware of student photo details. Make sure the pictures you are posting are a positive representation of the school/class.

• Reminder: Do not use full names or personal information. Watch your sizes! While photos are acceptable in jpeg format, everything else should be

in gif format. Animated clip art is discouraged. Why? They can take a long time to load. You always

need to be conscious of your audience – many people in our community use dial-up. Animation, when pertaining to the class curriculum (such as design and computer animation) is acceptable but we recommend placement on a secondary page rather than a main welcome page.

Clip art images: • Only royalty free, non-copyrighted images are allowed. • All other images must be cited. In addition, any documents that you post that

contain images should include a citation. Posted photos should pertain to the page they are on. For instance, if you teach 5th grade

and also coach a sport, your sports photos of your athletes should not be on your 5th grade teacher home page.

Barker Central School Pre-Kindergarten-12 Technology Expectations The Technology Integration Development Volunteer (TIDV) committee is comprised of Barker Central elementary, middle and high school teachers. The TIDV committee was established to assist in the research and development of curriculum-based technology outcomes for students. The New York State Learning Standards and the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) initiated National Educational Technology Standards (NETS) project were used as guides in the development of grade level expectations in educational technology for grades Pre-Kindergarten through 12. Each grade level expectation consists of 6 standards, with accompanying goals and objectives. This project developed objectives to guide teachers in recognizing and addressing the effective use of technology to support student achievement. The availability of this data provides instructional staff with a means to integrate technology into student activities and curricular units of instruction. The Barker Central School educational technology expectations provide continuous and consistent opportunities to utilize technology. The TIDV committee has begun work on aligning software with each educational technology objective. This will assist instructional staff in the development of student activities and lesson plans. It is hoped that this information will encourage the collaborative development of interdisciplinary and other activities that meet New York State Learning Standards. This is a working document that will be revised on a continuous basis.
